1. stop the backend
2. mythtv-setup
3. change the location from /var/lib/mythtv/recordings
to /srv/mythtv/recordings/
4. mv /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/* /srv/mythtv/recordings/
5. check perms just to be sure
6. restart backend
7. check that I can play/delete/have new recordings
and I'm done, without scripts or cron jobs
sub-optimal storage usage? yes, but clever people will be helping me
with this in a short enough time-frame :o)
Thanks again for this, and for MythTV in general, I certainly have a
great respect for what you are producing.
